2009-02-10[SCSI] ibmvfc: Increase cancel timeoutBrian King
During cancel testing it has been shown that 15 seconds is not nearly long enough for the VIOS to respond to a cancel under loaded situations. Increasing this timeout to 60 seconds allows time for the VIOS to cancel the outstanding commands and prevents us from escalating to a full host reset, which can take much longer.

2008-12-29[SCSI] ibmvfc: Improve async event handlingBrian King
While doing various error injection testing, such as cable pulls and target moves, some issues were observed in handling these events. This patch improves the way these events are handled by increasing the delay waiting for the fabric to settle and also changes the behavior of Link Up to break the CRQ to ensure everything gets cleaned up properly on the VIOS.

2008-12-29[SCSI] ibmvfc: Delay NPIV login retry and add retriesBrian King
Adds a delay prior to retrying a failed NPIV login. This fixes a scenario if the backing fibre channel adapter is getting reset due to an EEH event, NPIV login will fail. Currently, ibmvfc retries three times very quickly, resets the CRQ and tries one more time. If the adapter is getting reset due to EEH, this isn't enough time. This adds a delay prior to retrying a failed NPIV login and also increments the number of retries.

2008-12-29[SCSI] ibmvfc: Handle port login required responseBrian King
The virtual fibre channel stack can return a failure response for a command indicating the port login has been invalidated without sending the client an async event. Add code to handle this response and initiate a PLOGI. Signed-off-by: Brian King <brking@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: James Bottomley <James.Bottomley@HansenPartnership.com>
2008-12-29[SCSI] ibmvfc: Fix command timeouts due to cached CRQ accessBrian King
The CRQs used by the ibmvfc driver are read and written by both the client and the server. Therefore, we need to mark them volatile so that we do not cache their contents when handling an interrupt. This fixes a problem which can surface as occasional command timeouts. No commands were actually timing out, but due to accessing cached data for the CRQ in the interrupt handler, the interrupt was not processing all command completions as it should.

2008-12-29[SCSI] ibmvfc: Fix target initialization failure retry handlingBrian King
If the ibmvfc driver is in discovery attempting to log into a target and it encounters an error, the command may get retried one or more times, depending on the error received. If the retries are unsuccessful such that the discovery thread gives up on discovery to that target, the target ends up in a state where, if SCSI core had previously known about the device, the host will get unblocked but the host will not be logged into the target, causing any commands sent to the target to fail. This patch fixes this so that if this occurs, the target is deleted such that the normal dev_loss processing can occur instead.

2008-12-29[SCSI] ibmvfc: Error handling fixesBrian King
Due to an ambiguity in the VIOS VFC interface specification, abort/cancel handling is not done correctly and can result in double completion of commands. In order to cancel all outstanding commands to a device, a cancel must be sent, followed by an abort task set. After the responses are received for these commands, there may still be commands outstanding, in the process of getting flushed back, in which case, we need to wait for them. This patch removes the assumption that if the abort and the cancel both complete successfully that the device queue has been flushed and waits for all the responses to come back.

2008-07-12[SCSI] ibmvfc: IBM Power Virtual Fibre Channel Adapter Client DriverBrian King
This patch adds a new device driver to support the Virtual Fibre Channel interface on IBM Power based servers. The Virtual I/O Server on IBM Power servers utilizes N-Port ID Virtualization to export a Virtual Fibre Channel adapter to the client. This driver is the client device driver.
